Assembly on American Presidential 'Power' and its limits

(0)
Includes a diamond 9 activity to get students engaged (and arguing) over who has the most power. Moves on to a discussion of the origins of the American system of ‘checks and balances’ and takes that argument forward through history, looking at things like Nixon and Trump’s ‘Muslim Ban’ to see where and when Presidential power has been curtailed. Ends with a comparison of the ‘China model’ and a discussion of the pros and cons of the US system in the modern world.
